The heavy rain has been pouring down all the time for three days. Not only fields but also villages have been flooded. Last night, the flood washed houses away and the villagers were in danger and struggling in the water, crying for help. Just then, the PLA men hurried over by steamboat. They did their best to save villagers and helped them to move onto the riverbank. The government cared for the villagers very much. Tents, food, clothes and medicine were s ent to them without delay. Without the government, a large number of people would have lost their lives in the flood or died of hunger.
